The authors of the report assembled available published and unpublished information and data germane to the geology, geochemistry, geophysics, and economic mineral deposits in the quadrangle. The team then identified specific topical studies that, when completed and incorporated with existing information, would provide the data necessary to adequately evaluate the mineral resource potential of the Leadville quadrangle. The work plan covers 5 years 4 for data acquisition and 1 for preparation of the final report as well as a preliminary period of time during which existing data can be evaluated and some new data could be collected. Owing to the lack of adequate data for resource assessment, this report does not attempt to provide, nor should it be construed to be, a preliminary resource assessment of the quadrangle. However, the available data suggest that the quadrangle has a high resource potential for a number of important commodities. I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Leadville I°x2° quadrangle is situated in west-central Colorado in the heart of the southern Rocky Mountains (fig. 1). The area combines a complex geologic setting with an impressively diverse and bountiful resource potential. A Conterminous U.S. Resource Assessment Program (CUSMAP) evaluation of the quadrangle by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) would provide an ideal opportunity to refine assessment techniques and increase our scientific understanding of mineral deposits. The proposed study area is underlain by a lithologically and structurally complex Proterozoic crystalline basement, exposed in deeply incised uplifts, which is overlain by a thick accumulation of Phanerozoic sedimentary rocks. Mesozoic and Tertiary plutons and volcanic rocks are exposed throughout the quadrangle. Stream sediment samples were collected throughout the quadrangle as part of the National Uranium Resource Evaluation (NURE) and Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management Wilderness programs. The resulting data are in part reflections of known mineralized areas. However, they also identify numerous areas of interest outside of those areas, as well as suggest different model types within recognized districts, which should be evaluated further during a full-scale resource assessment. Unfortunately, molybdenum, which is present in the world-class Climax-type deposits, was not analyzed for during the NURE program. Geophysical data emphasize the complexity and diversity of the study area. Aeromagnetic and gravity maps suggest that, where covered by Phanerozoic rocks, the crystalline bedrock, where not exposed, is present at relatively shallow depths in much of the eastern half of the quadrangle. In addition, the geophysical data suggest the presence of deep intrusions. Remote sensing and radiometric maps point to regions within the study area where low-temperature ground-water processes could have concentrated minerals. The Leadville quadrangle contains three of the most productive precious- metal districts in the United States, Leadville, Aspen, and Gilman, as well as Climax, the world's largest molybdenum deposit. More than 39 other districts are present as well (table 1). There are also indications for the possible occurrence of a wide variety of other resources, including syngenetic metal deposits, industrial minerals, and fuels. Expected Benefits Scientific The knowledge of the geologic setting is relatively good, and the quadrangle contains an impressive diversity of mineral deposit types. Within this context, therefore, the Leadville quadrangle offers an exceptional opportunity to actively concentrate on topical studies related to ore deposits and their geologic context. The studies should be interdisciplinary and should incorporate all available facilities and capabilities. Interaction between the CUSMAP study and current and proposed projects would be mutually beneficial to all projects. The scientific products would also fuel future research in the area and region. .109 10B____ 107______KM IDS 104. 103 102 I I 1 40 Owiw Cgtbondolrs. Fryinqpon Rtvtr BoMlt Figure 1.

Economic The preliminary mineral resource assessment indicates that the Leadville quadrangle has a high potential for undiscovered resources of a variety of metals and other important commodities. A full-scale assessment would delineate specific areas for known deposit types, and it could possibly identify deposit types heretofore unknown in the area. A CUSMAP resource assessment could make an enormous economic contribution both locally and nationally. Political The CUSMAP study would draw upon or interact with other U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) projects and programs. These include: * More than fifteen Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management (BLM) wilderness areas that have been studied within the quadrangle; * Projects that are currently in progress or are being proposed that would pertain to resource assessment of the quadrangle; and * Current DAT projects that include studies of the Leadville district, northern Sawatch Range mineral deposits, and the geochronology of central Colorado intrusive rocks and mineral deposits. In addition, the strong research interest in various aspects of the quadrangle shown by universities throughout the country invites active interaction with academia. II. GEOLOGY The geology of the Leadville I°x2° quadrangle represents more than 1.8 billion years of active tectonism, extensive plutonism, and cratonic sedimentation. During that time, geologic processes created substantial accumulations of mineral and energy resources, some of which have been tapped and others that undoubtedly await discovery. The geology of the quadrangle is shown in Tweto

    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF MARK H. BAILEY for the degree of Master of Science in Geology presented on June 7, 1979 Title: BEDROCK GEOLOGY OF WESTERN TAYLOR PARK, GUNNISON COUNTY, COLORADO Signature redacted for privacy. Abstract approved: I ._&V_j - Dr. Robert D. Lawrence The western Taylor Park area covers about 65 square miles on the western flank of the Sawatch Range. It is underlain chiefly by Precambrian rocks, partiallycovered on the east by glacial debris andoverlapped on the west and south by Paleozoic sedimentary rocks. The Precambrian rocks include a group ofmetasedimen- tary rocks of an undetermined age greaterthan 1700 m.y. The metasedimentary rocks include five mineralogicallydis- tinct units, quartzite, quartz-muscovite schist, quartz- epidote schist, quartz-plagioclase-biotite schist,and quartz-biotite-microcline-sillimaflite schist. The higher grade sillimanite-bearing biotite schists arerestricted to the western half of the map area and closelyassociated with the Forest Hill granitic rocks. The metasedimentary rocks were intruded twiceduring Precambrian time. The oldest intrusive event resulted in syntectonic emplacement of granodiorite and biotite tona- lite rocks. These rocks correlate with the 1700 m.y.old Denny Creek granodiorite gneiss and Kroenkegranodiorite which are mapped and informally named in the adjoining Mount Harvard quadrangle. The second, post-tectonic, igneous eventproduced granitic rocks that are dated at 1030 m.y. byRb-Sr meth- ods. These rocks include two comagmatic graniticphases, the Forest Hill porphyritic granite and the ForestHill cataclastic granite. A third phase, the Forest Hill horn- blende granodiorite, intrudes the porphyritic graniteand, therefore, is younger than the granitic phases. The 1030 m.y.

C. Hedlund and G. A. Nowlan, U.S. Geological Survey and R. H. Wood, n, U.S. Bureau of Mines STUDIES RELATED TO WILDERNESS Under the provisions of the Wilderness Act (Public Law 88-577, September 3, 1964) and the Joint Conference Report on Senate Bill 4, 88th Congress, the U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S. Bureau of Mines have been conducting mineral surveys of wilderness and primitive areas. Areas officially designated as "wilderness," "wild," or "canoe" when the act was passed were incorporated into the National Wilderness Preservation System, and some of them are presently being studied. The act provided that areas under consideration for wilderness designation should be studied for suitability for incorporation into the Wilderness System. The mineral surveys constitute one aspect of the suitability studies. The act directs that the results of such surveys are to be made available to the public and be submitted to the President and the Congress. This report discusses the results of a mineral survey of the Buffalo Peaks Wilderness Study Area, Pike and San Isabel National Forests, Lake, Park, and Chaffee Counties, Colo. The area was established as a wilderness study area by Public Law 96-560, December 22, 1980. MINERAL RESOURCE POTENTIAL SUMMARY STATEMENT During 1981 and 1982, the U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S. Bureau of Mines conducted field investigations to evaluate the mineral resource potential of the Buffalo Peaks Wilde-ness Study Area.

Leadville National Fish Hatchery All Species Hunt Plan I. Introduction National Fish Hatcheries are guided by the mission and goals of the National Fish Hatchery System (NFH); the purposes of an individual hatchery; U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) policy, laws and international treaties. The Leadville National Fish Hatchery resides on 3,072 acres in Lake County, Colorado. The Hatchery was created by Executive Order of President Benjamin Harrison in 1889 for the purpose of restoring depleted stocks of trout in the Upper Arkansas Region of Colorado, the Black hills of South Dakota, and Nebraska. At that time the main water supply for the hatchery was from Rock Creek. To protect the hatchery’s water supply, most of the Rock Creek drainage was included in the 3,072 acre hatchery land base. Leadville National Fish Hatchery is the second oldest federally operated fish hatchery in existence today and is one of the oldest surviving tangible examples of the historic legacy upon which the Service was first established. The hatchery is located in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado approximately six miles southwest of the city of Leadville.

    CONTINENTAL DIVIDE NATIONAL SCENIC TRAIL DAY & OVERNIGHT HIKES: COLORADO CONTINENTAL DIVIDE TRAIL COALITION VISIT COLORADO! Day & Overnight Hikes on the Continental Divide Trail THE CENTENNIAL STATE The Colorado Rockies are the quintessential CDT experience! The CDT traverses 800 miles of these majestic and challenging peaks dotted with abandoned homesteads and ghost towns, and crosses the ancestral lands of the Ute, Eastern Shoshone, and Cheyenne peoples. The CDT winds through some of Colorado’s most incredible landscapes: the spectacular alpine tundra of the South San Juan, Weminuche, and La Garita Wildernesses where the CDT remains at or above 11,000 feet for nearly 70 miles; remnants of the late 1800’s ghost town of Hancock that served the Alpine Tunnel; the awe-inspiring Collegiate Peaks near Leadville, the highest incorporated city in America; geologic oddities like The Window, Knife Edge, and Devil’s Thumb; the towering 14,270 foot Grays Peak – the highest point on the CDT; Rocky Mountain National Park with its rugged snow-capped skyline; the remote Never Summer Wilderness; and the broad valleys and numerous glacial lakes and cirques of the Mount Zirkel Wilderness. You might also encounter moose, mountain goats, bighorn sheep, marmots, and pika on the CDT in Colorado. In this guide, you’ll find Colorado’s best day and overnight hikes on the CDT, organized south to north. ELEVATION: The average elevation of the CDT in Colorado is 10,978 ft, and all of the hikes listed in this guide begin at elevations above 8,000 ft. Remember to bring plenty of water, sun protection, and extra food, and know that a hike at elevation will likely be more challenging than the same distance hike at sea level.
